Author-illustrator Edward Hemingway
Author-illustrator Edward Hemingway dropped by Watch. Connect. Read. to celebrate Picture Book Month and to finish my sentences. We chatted about apples, tiny pies, noises in the night, reading, and, of course, picture books. I wrote the words in red, and he wrote the words in black. Thank you, Edward!
Mark Bailey and Michael Oatman are first time children’s book authors of Tiny Pie, which is
illustrated by yours truly. Mark and Michael wanted the main character of Ellie
to be a baby human, but I only agreed to do the story if I could make her an
elephant. I love painting elephants. Babies, not so much.
Alice Waters' recipe for “Tiny Apple Pies” is VERY COMPLICATED. Don’t get me wrong, it’s great, but this
overgrown child had a lot of trouble making it in his tiny kitchen. Get your
parents to help.
Billy hears a Bump!
In the Night! Anyone can read about Billy and a gaggle of ghoulies, ghosties,
and long leggedy beasties in my first picture book- online for free (and for a
good cause) at WeGiveBooks.com.
Reading is the
best camping trip ever.
Picture books are my favorite campfire stories.
I LOVE this adorable trailer---and Will and Mac, too :) In fact, I could swear I've seen them at Barnes hanging out :)
